Morecombe and Wise: v.1: Bring Me Sunshine by Eric Morcambe
A compilation of great gags and sketches from the incomparable Eric and Ernie, one of the best-loved and most successful comedy duos of all time. Dip into the fun barrel for such magic moments as Ernie the male model, Eric and his fast-growing moustache seeds, and the day little Ern (he of the short, fat, hairy legs) was asked to be Bob Hope s head waiter (sorry, head writer). Furthermore, Ernie s genius as a mathematician is revealed he can even do calculations blindfolded and hear how Eric tries to help Ernie get over the flu. (You can tell he s ill, he hasn t written a play for 20 minutes but, don t worry, he ll write six more the next day.) There s the first meeting in a London teashop between Lord Byron and Keats, as well as Eric s name change by deed pill ( no wonder it hurt ). But will 'The Robin Catbush and Phyllis Ludicrous Show' really catch on? 2 CDs, 90 minutes"
